Hello there, my name is Peter Haken and I am a 40 year old Urban Photographer from Cheltenham in England

I have been interested in photography for longer than I can remember and started with a Zenith film camera in my childhood. For me it was a hobby that enabled me to capture and collect images of my main interest, and that has always been the natural world and urban life.
My work as a website designer uses digital photography in every site so i have had to learn many new skills. This website is the next step in my photographic career.
Like most other people interested in the natural world, I grew up watching wildlife documentaries and this gave me my interest in wildlife watching and nature photography.
Living in many different cities has inspired me with a love for urban and street photography... people are too busy in their life's and miss so much just walking down a street, so i like to capture the pictures people miss.
I am very passionate about Black and White photography and this is my preferred medium to work in.
I hope that you enjoy viewing my images, and if you buy one of my images then you would not only be doing me a great honour, but you will also be investing in my future images.. If you see an image you like please just email me :-)
I am a Digital photographer who just loves the Black and White medium, dont get me wrong colour has its place but i always look for that Black and White shot
